PHoToGRAPHISG CoPy.-The New York TIL
Jlne says that twenty. five thousand sheets Of
copy have already been prepared for the new
Century Dictionary making great mass of
manuscript, which the publishers deem it neces-
sary to preserve. If it were to be destroyed it
might be impossible, through death or otherwise,
to consult the expert writer whose opinions
embodied. 1t was proposed to insure the manu-
script Tor S150000, but money alone could not
replace the less. Finally, someone suggested the
photogiaphing of them, and this was successfully
done. Each sheet, which is Of brown paper, is
eight by twelve inches, but when photographed
it is only one and three.quarters by two and one
quarter inches and every letter is legible as in
the original when enlarged by an ordinary mag
nifying glass. Thus, it will be seen that the bulk
OF the matter is reduced to nearly one fourth in
size. so that the entire twenty i've thousand
sheets can be stored away In large blreau draw
er. i he expense of all this work will not exceed
three hundred dollars and the copy is made
practically as safe as it possibly could be.

The Ketchum keystone. [volume] (Ketchum, Idaho) 1885-1899, 1887-01-29

There is lawyer in Boston who
is in the habit at times of address
ing individual jurymen when mat
tentive or restless, and sometimes
his argumentem ad hominem is ef-
fective. Some time ago he was
trying case against street rail-
way company, and there was an
old sailor on the jury who seemed
to give no heed to what either cOun-
sci said. The lawyer made his most
eloquent appeals, but all in vain.
Finally he stopped in front of the
sailor and said: "Mr. Juryman, l
will tell you just how this happened.
The plaintiff was in command of
the outward bound open car, and
stood in her starboard channels.
Along came the inward bound close
car, and just as their bows met she
jumped the track, sheered to port,
and knocked the plaintiff off and
ran over him." The sailor was all
attention after this version of the
affair, and joined in $1,000 ver-
dict for the injured man.

The closing days of 1916 pre-.
sented far different scene to the
eyes of Mrs. John NJ. Murphy, OF
San Jose, and sister of Mrs. Lewis,
than the closing days of 1886. Then
she was at Bonner Lake with a
party hemmed in by snow, and
anxiously waiting for that relief
which did not come for weeks after
ward. "It is a curious
fact" she began, "that the credit Of
the gold discovery was never given
to the man to whom it rightfully
belongs. 1t was discovered in the
winter of '46 and al, in a cabin in
which we were at Donner Lake,
seated by fire, each busy with his
or her own thoughts. That awful
time at Donner Lake is as firmly
imbeded in my memory as if ham,
mered there by hammers ofiron. AS
l said, we were seated around the
fire when John Denton, gunsmith
by trade, while knocking off chips
of the rocks on which the wood
was placed, saw something shining.
He examined it and pronounced it
gold. He then knocked off more
chips from the rocks, and hunted
in the ashes for more of the shin
ing particles, until he had gathered
a tablespoonful. He wrapped the
gold in a piece of buckskin, and
put it in his pocket. When the
first relief party came he went out
with it, but died on the way and the
gold was buried with him. When
l saw my father, Mr.. Reed, l told
him of the circumstance, and,
said he, if John Denton says that
that is gold, it is gold, for he knows.
My father intended to 60 back to
Donner Lake to search for the pre-
cious metal, but before he started
gold was discovered at Suffers
Fort, hence he did not return to
the lake. l think that if a thorough
search is made, gold can be found
at the present day at the lake or
near it. Not much gold has since
been found there, because no regu-
lar prospect has been made for it.
81 have been told that the rocks
which we used in the fireplace were
washed down to the lake from a
mountain in which gold was, but
this mountain was probably many
miles away from the lake.
"When any one asks me about
the discovery of gold, l say that
John Denton was the first discov-
erer of gold in California. Santa

IDAHO, SATURDAY, JANUARY 20, 1887.

opinion of it. In a civil action
the decision would be at once ques-
toned and appealed against; but il
is long since it was positively stated
as settled that the Court can not
set aside verdict which acquits a
defendant in q prosecution proper
ly criminal. Should, however, the
jury find a prisoner guilty, when
there is a doubt in the case, OF
reason to believe rather in the inno-
cence than in the guilt of the ac-
cused, there is no legal difficulty in
the way of undoing the work. A
new trial in such cases should be
granted, but the usual couse is to
pardon the prisoner.
An eminent American jurists { NJ.
P. Deadly, writing OH the subject,
makes the remark that trial by
jury, like other parts of the fabric
of representative government, pre-
suppOses a degree Of virtue and in
telligence among the people, with
out which it will degenerate into
an instrument of corruption and
oppression. A verdict, as he we'll
says, which is not at least an hon
est conviction of the jury upon the
evidence given them in court, is
lower in the scale of procedure and
ethics than the ordeal by fire and
water or the appeal to arms. From
the same authority we have the fine
illustration of a great incidental
benefit of trial by jury in the State,
in that it helps to maintain the
credit and authority of the court,
by joining with it for the time be-
ing respectable body of the peo-
pie whose presence and cO-opera-
ton tend to identify the public
and non-professional element of
society with its proceedings and
make them their own, and by
relieving it from the difficult
and invidious task of passing
upon questions of fact involving
the motives, intentions and in
tegrity of parties and witnesses,
it thereby shields it from the rancor
and distrust of those who are dis
credited or prejudiced by the pro-
ceedings before it. 1t may at times
be different with the Court itself /;
but a jury is only called into ex-
istence for the time being. " At the
call of the law it comes forth from
the people, hears the parties, gives
it's verdict and passes away-is re-
solved into its original elements.
In free country the loser must al
ways be allowed to grumble, but
the dissatisfaction with the jury is
not aimed at any one in particular.
1t discharges itself in the air, and
passes off as harmless as sheet
lightning."-Leeds Mercury.
